perf trace beauty: Beautify arch_prctl()'s arguments

This actually so far, AFAIK is available only in x86, so the code was put in place with x86 prefixes, in arches where it is not available it will just not be called, so no further mechanisms are needed at this time.

Later, when other arches wire this up, we'll just look at the uname (live sessions) or perf_env data in the perf.data header to auto-wire the right beautifier.

With this the output is the same as produced by 'strace' when used with the following ~/.perfconfig:

  # cat ~/.perfconfig
  [llvm]
	dump-obj = true
  [trace]
	  add_events = /home/acme/git/perf/tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
	  show_zeros = yes
	  show_duration = no
	  no_inherit = yes
	  show_timestamp = no
	  show_arg_names = no
	  args_alignment = -40
	  show_prefix = yes
  #

And, on fedora 29, since the string tables are generated from the kernel sources, we don't know about 0x3001, just like strace:

-arch_prctl(0x3001 /* ARCH_??? */, 0x7ffc8a92dc80) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) +arch_prctl(0x3001 /* ARCH_??? */, 0x7ffe4eb93ae0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument) -arch_prctl(ARCH_SET_FS, 0x7faf6700f540) = 0 +arch_prctl(ARCH_SET_FS, 0x7fb507364540) = 0

And that seems to be related to the CET/Shadow Stack feature, that userland in Fedora 29 (glibc 2.28) are querying the kernel about, that 0x3001 seems to be ARCH_CET_STATUS, I'll check the situation and test with a fedora 29 kernel to see if the other codes are used.

A diff that ignores the different pointers for different runs needs to be put in place in the upcoming regression tests comparing 'perf trace's output to strace's.
